Chapter 4, Problem 6C

Explanation of Solution

Recursive algorithm to rearrange the array elements:

Algorithm Sort(A[],n):

    Input: An array “A” and an integer “n”.

    Output: Rearranged array elements.

set loop<-0

loop for from “0” to n-1

    minimum=minimum(A,loop,n-1)

    if minimum != loop then

        set temp <- A[minimum]

        set x <- A[loop]

        set A[loop] <- tempo

    endif

    loop++

endfor

end

Algorithm to return index of smallest value in A:

Algorithm minimum(A[],start,end):

    Input: An array A, starting and ending index

    Output: Index of smallest value

set minimum <- st...

Explanation of Solution

Running time of the algorithm:

  • In the function “Sort()”, the “for” loop is executed for “n” number of times.
  • This function calls another function called “minimum()”, which is executed again for “n” number of times on each call...
